Has anyone had their radiator fans come on during the reflash process? Good thing I had a battery charger/starter hooked up cause they started sucking down the juice... The flash went through just fine, but I'd be scared to run this without being hooked up to AC power...

That's intentionally triggered to stabilize voltage while flashing. No worries. I have flashed with voltage as low as 11,74V and I recall there is a security feature to not let you start the flash process below a certain battery voltage.

So far I have not really have not got to drive it. From the little bit I did last night, it feels sluggish. I am sure that's where the data logging comes in. This way they UPREV can Zero in on the correct values for my Z.
You or at least I can tell what I feel to be the Optimized Throttle Control.

My Maps look like this:

Idel: Stock
Map 1: Economy: Stock + Optimized Throttle Control Map, Air/Fuel Tuning
Map 2: Valet: 3200 rpm limit, 30 mph
Map 3: Sport: 93 octane tune, 7400 rpm, No Speed Limiter, Optimized Throttle Control Map, Air/Fuel Tuning.

Now UPREV Added these two:

Map 4: Economy mode (13.25 AFR targets, 4400RPM rev limit)
Map 5: Stock

Over all I am real excited to see how it all turns out after my First e-tune. I am going to be logging these Parameters. This something i found on this post:
A/F CORR-B1 (%)
A/F CORR-B2 (%)
AFR WB-B1 (AFR)
AFR WB-B2 (AFR)
A/F WB-B1 (V)
A/F WB-B2 (V)
ACCEL PED POS 1 (V-Accel)
B-FUEL SCHDL (ms)
CAL/LD VALUE (%)
COOLANT TEMP (F)
ENGINE RPM (rpm)
IGN TIMING (BTDC)
INJ PULSE-B1 (ms)
INJ PULSE-B2 (ms)
INTAKE AIR TMP (F)
MAF GM/S (gm/s)
MAS A/F -B1 (V)
THROTTLE POS 1 (V-Throttle)
VEHICLE SPEED (mph)



Now according the the FAQ at www.uprev.com all you need to log is:
What parameters should be logged for AFR eTuning?
AFR Bank 1 and Bank 2 (See Cipher user guide)
Accelerator position (either one)
Base fuel schedule
Calculated load
Coolant temp
Engine speed (RPM)
Ignition timing advance
Throttle position (either one)


I will see how it goes.

Chad

Do you have a link to where this is explained?

That's not a good idea, if it's intentional. My fans draw a LOT more current than the stock fans. I don't understand why the voltage would need to be brought down...

On another note, it seems that the max idle rpm is 850, even though I asked for 1000. I then asked for 800, and it was 800. Sorry if this has been answered before but this is one long thread!

i dont know if anyone has said this b4 but on their web site where it shows the dyno sheets. the second one down where it says "06 revup AT" there is no such thing as an automatic rev-up

I love my beta version, but haven't played with it lately since the Z is in the garage for the winter.

Wouldn't it of made sense to have beta testers that drove there Z all year round? We all wait an extra 6 months cause the beta cars are parked for winter or what?

^I got to agree, what's the point of having beta testers that aren't "testing"?

There are very few beta users, besides some tuning shops. I think im one of like 10 or less. I drive my car all year even long distance. Once I replace my O2 sensor and find a new laptop i need to retune my car because of new headers and exhaust.
